Summary
The Adobe VIP (Value Incentive Plan) Marketplace is a game-changer for businesses. It’s an API (Application Program Interface) program that empowers enterprises to purchase, manage, resell, and deploy Adobe software licenses swiftly and seamlessly. The Marketplace offers benefits such as streamlined purchasing processes, unified license management, and versatile deployment options, simplifying software acquisition and management.
The Marketplace also generates vast amounts of rapidly changing data and content based on user interactions. This data is invaluable, but managing and deciphering it poses a challenge.
The answer? CloudBlue’s technology – Adobe Insights. Transforming data challenges into opportunities, it enables Adobe resellers to analyze complex, multi-channel data in real-time, making data-driven business decisions both achievable and effortless.
In a world without Adobe Insights: The traditional challenges of Adobe reselling
Adobe resellers have long faced significant obstacles, including:
- limited access to crucial business information
- the manual, labor-intensive process of building reports and dashboards
- restricted visibility into sales data and revenue forecasts
These issues typically lead to missed opportunities and a tedious and time-consuming process of tracking critical information.
How Adobe Insights pioneers advanced insights for Adobe VIP Marketplace
Adobe Insights addresses these persistent challenges, turning reselling hurdles into opportunities for growth and efficiency. More than just a tool, it’s a transformative platform for our CloudBlue partners.
By eliminating “swivel-chair operations”—manual data transfer between different systems and applications—Adobe Insights offers Adobe resellers a new dimension of business intelligence, with direct visualization of their Adobe VIP Marketplace business in CloudBlue.
Unique in the cloud industry, CloudBlue’s Adobe Insights provides a value-added service to enrich the Adobe VIP Marketplace program with sophisticated insights.
